How to change default integreated terminal in VS Code to kitty on Linux

Question

I'm using kitty (it's a terminal) on Linux, and I want it to be used in VS Code as default terminal (which appears when I click Ctrl+`). Right now VS Code uses its own terminal with name "vscode".

I tried modifying settings by adding there "terminal.external.linuxExec": "/usr/bin/kitty" but it didn't help.

When I click Select Default Profile it only allows me to choose between zsh and bash.

How do I change default terminal to kitty?

UPDATE: I've added kitty profile like so

"terminal.integrated.profiles.linux": {
    "bash": {
      "path": "bash",
      "icon": "terminal-bash"
    },
    "zsh": {
      "path": "zsh"
    },
    ... other profiles

    "kitty": {
      "path": "/usr/bin/kitty"
    }
  },

But when I choose kitty now, it opens the terminal outside of VS Code.

I don't believe that is a thing; under linux, you have a shell in which you execute commands through the terminal; to my knowledge, a runner to work the shell is simply a sort of runner, so I know that you can either switch to zsh or bash, such as zshell or bash or fish or dash.

You can also change your default shell so that you can use your aliases in the codeoss terminal. First, type 'echo $SHELL' to get your current shell (/usr/bin/zsh, /bin/zsh, /bin/bash, /bin/dash), then type 'cat /etc/shells' to receive a list of all installed shells and choose which one you wish to use,Then just type 'chsh' and it'll ask you which shell you want to use, just type /bin/ and you're done; this should also change the shell in VScode, and now all your aliases should work; in case of script compatibility errors, generally zsh scripts and bash scripts work with each other, but I don't have experience with others. Thank you very much.
